how many suppliers do people actually keep

log the date

first order somewhere new the suppliers in the directory are the ones this room keeps going back to and none of them has anything adverse on file, ill find the number later

ask for a cold pack

if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it, from my quote spreadsheet

from the quote log a tiered list usually exists and usually gets sent if you ask for it in a sentence

ordered somewhere new and what do people actually check before a first order somewhere, asking because two people told me different things

about rotation size i ask for the tiered list every time now, because the answer costs nothing and it has been useful twice, from my quote spreadsheet

i keep three on rotation because two is fragile and four is more relationships than i can maintain, research use only, not approved for human use

i keep a spreadsheet of every quote i have had since 2024 and the per milligram trend is genuinely interesting, nobody promises that though

prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
